To the guy who reads "a book a day": I'm a blonde with big boobs who finds it really hot that you do that. Thank god you told us! Can we have sex ASAP?

Good article. I think it's a brilliant idea. No wonder so many people compliment it.

Oh crap, I am that guy, nooooo! But I would prefer to have all the books, reading off a screen is crappy.

I play D&D, and this would save on a lot of hassle dragging books around. You don't have to be crazy to get some use out of this, just a geek. :)

gotta love stealing built-in GarageBand loops for making your video. You could've at least tweaked it a little bit.

Funny video, but I wish it would have gotten into the pricing of the Kindle. Who on Earth has $399 to spend on this thing, plus extra fees for emails, blogging, newspaper subscriptions, and about $10 a book? Between the web and the library, I don't think anyone really needs a Kindle. Wanting one is another story...

Hey Cracked! Just when will you guys stop sucking already? Yeah, we get it, it was funny, ha-ha-ha n stuff, but now you could get back to the real comedy now, seriously...please?

When there's weather to report I report the weather.

I think it's a brilliant idea. Just like Chris said there are so many uses- it's like the internet but with verifiable sources. How stupid is it really to look up "how to defuse a bomb" on some boot-leg site when you can actually INSTANTLY reference your "Bombs for Dummies" book on your Kindle?.... the price is my main issue. It's ugly too but I could get past that part.

This thing is ugly. I just find the whole idea of the kindle (what a dumb name too) to be stupid. First of all, a book won't smash into pieces if I drop it on concrete. A book also doesn't have DRM like these things do. I predict it will fail miserably and disappear in less than 12 months.

it's actually pretty useful if put to the right application. Think about medical textbooks? Think about downloading entire regulations manuals for the military. Think about law. The pratical uses are limitless... also... i'm sure every person commenting would be poking fun at it if it only held 50 books. You'd be saying "why not put more space incase you need it for some odd reason"?

Wow, what a big coincidence. I just saw a similar report at pubsap.com. It seems that people are interested this kind of topics.

Making fun of people over the internet makes me feel better about myself.

Christ, really? My Jewfro is greasy? My eyes look stoned? I've never smoked pot in my entire life. Are you guys just jealous of my overwhelming handsomeness?
